The Circle (2017)


Truly disappointing, a criminally underused Tom Hanks is in very few scenes and you know nothing really about his character except he is the boss and is maybe hiding something under all the positivity. I believe if he had a more meatier role this film would have been better. The source material i cant comment on as i have not read the book, but have read some by that author and cant imagine that his book was as bad as this film. The relationships are not sustained, people you assume to just be casual acquaintances have known each other their whole lives, and i'm glad my friends aren't as useless as these ones. It may be that i'm a bit of a technophobe and don't agree with everything being connected, though it is increasingly more difficult now, and we cannot trust everything to computers, just watch I,Robot (2005.) The comparisons to Google are obvious and clumsy, but i would say that this site is attached to google!



Better Than This: Wall Street (1987) "Greed is good" and this film is superb, Jobs (2013) A look at the main dick behind Apple, Road To Perdition (2002) Tom Hanks doesn't really do baddies but here he is a hitman and manages to be a better person than his glimpsed character in the above drivel.
